Yep - that's why I only want one. It'll be targeted for my duty carbine, for some SHTF scenarios. Many of those scenarios could be "run whatcha brung". So, 60 rounds on tap, where a reload could be problematical, makes me feel all warm and fuzzy. I guess I'm a Marine at heart: "Overwhelming firepower -- is just about right." Plus, it's just cool.

Magpul's drum/ box design is very interesting - and I'm sure they'll do it right.
